During the past two days, ETH price suffered heavy losses below $325 against the US Dollar. The price declined below the $290 level and traded as low as $281.24.

It has breached the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $336.32 high to $281.24 low.

During the upside move, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance near $297.50 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. It has opened the doors for further gains above $300 in the near term. The next resistance is around the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $336.32 high to $281.24 low at $308.78. Above $308.78, there is a bearish trend line at $316 on the same chart. Therefore, it won’t be easy for buyers to clear the $308-315 resistance zone.
